Cool

Drive mine every day but it is only six miles to work. Got it in Feb. and still have under 3,000 miles on it. Other than back and forth to Tampa a couple of times it doesn't get much distance driving in. Well it did go to the race track. That was fun. The big trip will be to Lexfest end of September in Atlanta. That will probably be the farthest I'll be driving it. I hate to drive, would much rather fly.

drive my car every day and kept my s2k at home for the weekends.

I don't see why some people don't like to drive this everyday. It feels really nice and something we need in everyday CA traffic.

I drive mine for trips out of NYC only. Cars are not so useful in this city - normally I use the subway or cabs to get around. I would say I use it only about twice a month on average. I've had it for 8 months and only ~5000 miles.

Daily driven since december. I've logged about 13000 miles on the IS since then. Longest drive was when I drove from San Diego to Las Vegas. I baby the car almost everyday that my girlfriend thinks she comes 2nd. All I say to that is, at least the car doesnt talk back. lol

I drive it everyday as a daily driver. I think I have made a good choice to get IS250. It has a damn good mileage for me than my Supra TT.

Sorry dog! The 350 in my garage is actually my wife's ride.
Regarding to your question: I can drive it when she is in the shopping mall, or when she needs the car in th morning but it is already 10pm late in night and the tank is empty, or when she needs a car wash, tire rotation, shop service...
